    The document discusses the treatment and prevention of acne. It emphasizes that prevention is better than cure for acne and provides tips for maintaining healthy skin to prevent future breakouts. These include washing the affected skin areas twice a day with a gentle cleanser, using over-the-counter treatments containing benzoyl peroxide, and consulting a dermatologist if symptoms do not improve within two months. Total cure of acne is not possible, so the focus should be on preventing new spots and reducing scarring.

    The first and the foremost point to be remembered in the treatment of acne is not
    to panic. Whiteheads or blackheads will have to be treated with a cool head! No
    doubt, acne on the face is bound to cause a confusing contour in the curtain of
    your mind, but desperate remedies are not the solutions for desperate situations.

    A basic understanding of the acne situation in each individual case requires a


    thorough study. Fortunately or unfortunately, the literature and expertise
    regarding the treatment options available are likely to be confounded! A mountain
    of literature about the molehill that is acne!

    Let it be perfectly understood that total cure of acne is an impossibility. If


    someone, some product or some company- national or multinational promises it, take
    it as a business advertisement! They dwell upon it, because they have to sell. And
    all the selling is done at somebody's cost!

    If the golden rule, an ounce of prevention is better than a cure, is to be applied


    anywhere, apply it here; and apply it with profit. What is your basic formula for
    skin care? If it is no new spots, improved skin condition and making efforts to
    deny future scarring, you are on the right track! You have understood your acne!
    Personal treatment for a universal disease!

    Human skin needs a certain amount of oil to maintain its natural condition. And
    when it comes to acne skin, skin care becomes even more important. Keep the spot-
    prone areas clean. Wash the affected area twice a day with a perfume free cleanser.
    Note that aggressive washing and strong soaps are big enemies of your acne skin.

    Plus, hundreds of over-the-counter remedies are available with your chemist. The
    anti-bacterial agents in them, like benzoyl peroxide will help you a great deal to
    defeat acne. The skin areas where you feel that the spot is likely to emerge, must
    be kept clean. In effect, these agents dry out the skin and encourage it to shed
    the surface layer of dead skin. These effects make it harder for pores to become
    blocked and infection does not spread. When the antibacterial effects dry out the
    skin, the surface layer of the skin begins to fall. The pores are not blocked and
    infection is checked.

    No treatment will tender on the spot results. Significant effects, if they


    materialize hopefully, will take their own time. If results are not forthcoming,
    say within a period of two months, then it the time to switch over the treatment
    after consulting a dermatologist. At this stage, he has many options depending upon
    your case-history and his understanding of the problem, after certain
    investigations, if necessary. He has an armory of treatment options- both for
    external application and internal consumption.

    And finally, do not fail to consult your Grandma! That walking 'encyclopedia' may
    have unfailing solutions!
